Bath resealing in Dunkerton, done in place
A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, wet rooms and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are an untidy old seal and water getting behind the bath or tray.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dunkerton and across Bath and North East Somerset.

FAQs for Dunkerton
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are there extra charges for Dunkerton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Dunkerton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you’re in Dunkerton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Movement in the bath or tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet rooms
- Basins & vanity units
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dunkerton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What else we do in Dunkerton
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- We apply new mould-resistant silicone and tool it to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
What we are called out for in Dunkerton
Even good sealant eventually discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
Common reasons people in Dunkerton contact us are:
- Missing sealant behind the taps
- Gaps in the seal
- Black spots in the silicone
- Leaks at the edges
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Air the room after use
- Keep bottles off the joints
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and clean them regularly with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. It may be more than a reseal, so we will tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Dunkerton
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
